What would a deficit of plasma proteins likely cause?

If there is a decrease in the amount of plasma proteins, then overall health is affected. There are three main plasma proteins-albumins, globulins, and fibrinogen-that contribute to the composition of plasma. Osmotic pressure and the transport of fatty acids, thyroid hormones, some steroid hormones, and other substances will decrease. The amount of antibodies transported by the plasma will also decrease. Finally, the blood will not be able to clot properly because of the decrease of certain proteins in the plasma.

What is plasma used for?

There are two types of Plasma.Matter Plasma is a form of ionized matter stripped of electrons. This is what is found in the core of the sun.A plasma cutter is used in welding, and superheats gasses to create plasma. See the article on "How Stuff Works".http://home.howstuffworks.com/plasma-cutter.htmHowever, another term for Plasma is the liquid component in the blood. It includes minerals, proteins, and clotting factors.Perhaps the most useful part would be the clotting factors which can be useful for surgery or certain types of traumatic injury, or for the treatment of hemophilia, a disease that is characterized by a deficiency of clotting factors causing excess bleeding.
